Miley Cyrus — in all her tongue wagging, hip thrusting, twerking glory — is expected to bring her spectacle of a show to Los Angeles at the Staples Center tonight.

Opening for her are pop stars Sky Ferreira (who cut open her shin in Anaheim on Thursday but should be OK for L.A.’s concert) and Icona Pop for what is expected to be a jaw-dropping party, despite protests by soccer moms all over the country.
